Pre-Operation and Daily Safety Checklist
PRE-OPERATION AND DAILY SAFETY CHECKLIST
Each Club Car vehicle has been thoroughly inspected and adjusted at the factory; however, upon receiving your new
vehicle(s), you should become familiar with its controls, indicators, and operation. Carefully inspect each vehicle to
ensure that it is in proper working condition before accepting delivery.
Use the following checklist as a guide to inspect the vehicle. This checklist should be used daily to ensure that
the vehicle is in proper working condition and in conjunction with the Performance Inspection on page 30 and the
Periodic Service Schedule on page 54. Any problems should be corrected by a Club Car dealer/distributor or a
trained technician.
•
General:
All the parts should be in place and properly installed. Be sure that all nuts, bolts, and screws are tight.
Check hose clamps for tight fit.

Safety and information decals:
Check to ensure that all safety and information decals are in place and can be
read easily.
See Safety Decal and Feature Identification on page 5.

Wear in the brakes before initial vehicle operation. On a flat, open surface, accelerate the vehicle to moderate
speed, then apply the brakes under modest, steady pressure. Repeat this procedure eight to twelve times.
